About Us

The story of the Gigiri Lion Villas is in many ways a story of Nairobi City—a story of ambition, innovation, and achievement. We invite you to step into a world of luxury pegged on African hospitality reminiscent of the golden era of Safari that was marked by adventure, elegance, and romance.

Gigiri Lion Villas (GLV) is a luxury hotel villa that embodies the charm and sophistication of the golden ‘safari’ era providing guests personalised attention in an exceptional environment. The villa features eight deluxe rooms, three cosy cabins and a gourmet restaurant serving farm-to-table cuisine.

It is conveniently situated in Gigiri, a diplomatic hotspot and the home to Kenya’s large expatriate community. Take advantage of staying in Nairobi’s most prestigious address by exploring the nearby sprawling Village Market shopping complex, the lush Karura forest, or the innumerable entertainment options that dot the leafy surburb. Make sure to visit Nairobi National Park, the only national park adjacent to a city. After a day of exploring, unwind in your home away from home where we are always delighted to recognise a familiar face, welcome a new one and ensure all feel welcome.
